    I am going to send them a letter tomorrow reminding them that the invoice is still outstanding for the costs involved and as they are not prepared to communicate with me I am preparing the case to go to court,:rotfl:


    Maybe you should add a bit of bold red text saying that ignore this will not make the debt go away.

    My letter going out tomorrow to them :rotfl:

    PRE-COURT DIVISION.


    I DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE ANY DEBT TO YOUR COMPANY.

    URGENT COMMUNICATION. DO NOT IGNORE.
    DEBT - £394.00



    Legal Case no: xxxx

    Dear Mr Glover,

    Thank you for your letter dated 5th August 2008, which has been noted for future reference.

    Although I am pleased that you no longer see fit to be dealing with this case due to a lack of signed contract, there has been no response to the previous invoice or reminder letters. It is a legal requirement to send notice of intended Court Summons before issued. This letter fulfils this requirement even if you do not actually read it.

    To prevent us from taking legal action you MUST pay within 7 working days.

    Please send a cheque made out to xxxxxxxxxx with the legal case no clearly written on the back. Please do not send cash through the post.

    I would like to draw to your attention that if Judgement and an order for repayment in full is obtained and remains unpaid enforcement of the debt may be sought by one or more of the following means.
    • Warrant of execution by bailiffs against goods owned.
    • Application of attachment of earnings order with your present or future employer.
    • Application of a charging order on any property that you may own or are purchasing under a mortgage.

    I would like to draw to your attention that if legal action is taken, not only may this affect any future credit applications you make, but any legal costs incurred are usually payable by the debtor.

    I would like to draw to your attention that if legal action is taken, not only may this affect any future credit applications you make, but any legal costs incurred are usually payable by the debtor.

    Please see the breakdown of the charges on the reverse of this letter.

  • They have said they are not going to consider my claim against them, so I have filled in a claim for small claims and sent it through the online moneyclaim website, lets see if that makes them consider it more, lol.
